It was Kaufusi that produced the crucial moment in the game, breaking through the Eels line in the 46th minute with the ball eventually finding Kenny Bromwich for crossed under the posts to level the scores.

The play was one of the most remarkable you will see all season, with 10 different Storm players touching the football as it transferred from left to right.

It may not have been quite the plan developed on the training track but proved just as effective.

“The eyes lit up that’s for sure,” Kaufusi said.

“I got a bit lucky, offloaded to Nelson and he got one away to Kenny to finish it off, it was pretty special.

“It was a bit of a ‘see what happens’. I saw the space, took the space and we ended up scoring from there. It definitely gave us a bit of a boost when Kenny went over. Everyone rushed over, congratulated him, it was a pretty big turning point.”
